[Music]
welcome back to my fragrance review
today a review for the ladies out there
you guys know and you ladies know that
smelling great is definitely a good way
to make a great first impression today
we're going to talk about
christian siriano's la rouge
which is a fragrance released from 2020
and this particular fragrance is getting
quite a bit of a buzz out there and
you're going to find out in this video
why
people are talking about this fragrance
it's definitely worth checking out
christian siriano began his fashion
career actually
winning the season 4 project runaway the
tv show
and then launched his fashion brand back
in 2008 in 2014 he jumped into the
fragrance game
with release called silhouette which by
the way is a great fragrance which my
wife actually quite enjoys
and currently has six fragrances in
their portfolio including the sixth one
right here that we're going to talk
about today
oola rouge 2020 release all right first
things first what i do like about this
particular brand
is the quality that you get the
presentation which is actually really
nice
and the price point is actually not bad
this is another part from
which 100 mil just like the one you've
seen in this video will run you 85
msrp and this is available where sirieno
fragrances are sold we're talking about
boscovs you're talking about macy's
or general stores that do carry this
fashion brand
when you do open this beautiful radish
box that has ula rouge and christian
siriano right at the top here
the bottle looks really nice the
silhouette of a dress of a women's
red dress and it has this flower topper
to the fragrance
the sprayers are actually pretty good i
actually been wearing this my wife has
been wearing this
and when you spray this particular
fragrance on skin you're going to
if you have a seasoned nose one thing is
going to come to mind right off the bat
baccarat rouge 540 they sell they share
similarities with the name
obviously rouge baccarat rouge 540 from
mfk there are a lot of similarities with
this fragrance in that fragrance and i'm
going to
show you guys why but before we do that
when you do open this is actually a
bonus
that you're going to get within this
fragrance which is a nice christian
cereal
lip balm for the ladies out there you'll
appreciate this i think this is like a a
30 or 40
value that you get it for free with your
purchase here which is actually pretty
cool it comes with the box
and again when you spray this fragrance
on if you have a seasoned nose i'm
actually giving myself a blast on my
hand here this is actually my set of the
day but i'm going to remind myself of
the initial introduction
yes it's going to have an uncanny
resemblance with baccarat rouge 540.
the most resemblance is going to be with
the extracted bafan which is the red
bottle i do have
the parfum bottle which is going to be
not as sweet as the extracted bar foam
but it's going to project a lot stronger
than the extract depart foam which
stays a little closer to the skin the
resemblance here with
ula rouge is definitely more with the
extract depart on especially in the
first 15 minutes or so the fragrance
before it gets into the heart
the resemblance is uncanny when you
spray it on right off the bat you're
going to think back right reach 540 if
you have
you know a season nose but after 15 20
minutes the fragrance gets at the heart
that pralines that sweetness that you
get which is almost
syrupy and a little bit too sweet with a
lot of people's uh you know when they
think about this particular fragrance
they think it's a little too sweet
especially for the heat of the summer
time that we have right now
this won't be very fitting because it's
a little overly you know sweet
and other fragrances of this genre that
are actually similar to this particular
fragrance would be sensual instinct from
montal fragrances
or even instant crush from monserra now
all these fragrances share the same
scent character or scent profile
of the baccarat rouge 540. these are all
inspired by black rock rouge 540. now
what i like about
ula rouge is that it takes
or borrow elements for this particular
fragrance but then once you get into the
heart it becomes more
floral the oriental aspect really kicks
in so in the introduction it's going to
open up very close to baccarat rouge 540
the extract version you're going to get
that leathery
sweet saffron vibe but not as
overly sweet as it is with mfk for a lot
of people so i like what they did here
but as soon as you get into the 15
minute mark you're going to get a floor
aspect of the fragrance a really upfront
and center jasmine which really going to
take a front seat to the fragrance
there's also gardenia here in magnolia
which will
add to the floor aspect which i think
comparing this to other fragrances that
are inspired by backrot
rouge including baccarat rouge 540 this
is going to be the most
floral of all the fragrance that i've
tried so far even if you go as far as
like a cheaper version of this
particular genre with ariana grande's
cloud which is going to be more cotton
candy even more youthful more playful
and a lot sweeter
as you have the flower here in the
topper this is going to be the more
floor of all the different fragrances
within this particular
rouge genre if you will i think a lot of
brands are actually diving into the
florals these days i can see that even
with masculine fragrances
especially with the note of tuberose
which is being utilized quite a lot
no different here within the heart
driving into the dry down that tuberose
is going to really take a
an upfront and center stage here along
with that jasmine which brings
creaminess
to the composition that sweetness that
you get with your baccarat roux 540
fragrance is not going to be as
heady with this fragrance it's actually
more soothing smoother
and a lot more subtle when it comes to
the sweetness aspect that pry leans that
you get in the beginning
will definitely go into the back now
this is not gourmand territory at all
it's more of an oriental slash
floral type of ascent i have the dry
down on this hand
as you get into the 35 40 minute mark
the scent is actually
a lot different not a lot different but
it is very different
from bakarat roush 540 it's definitely a
different scent it takes a different
turn it's its own fragrance
again boring elements there's no
question about that there's no two ways
about it it's going to smell very like
so
uh you know bakara reached my party they
could be brothers or cousins it's in the
same family
but with those floral components it also
has an amber wood
a musk and an iso is super vibe to the
scent which adds
dimension and fullness to the
composition even some sensuality to the
fragrance
it can be unisex or gender-free i think
anybody can enjoy this if you like this
particular character
but i think it definitely means more
feminine for my taste
in fact i think my wife really loved
this i liked it a lot but i actually
prefer the original baccarat rouge 540
or the bafang it is my favorite from
from from you know all the different
rouge fragrances that i've tried if you
want to go more youthful more playful i
think ariana grande's cloud is actually
a great
option because it is on the cheaper side
but this particular one
eighty five dollars for a hundred mill
is actually quite a nice alternative
for this particular journal i think you
definitely want to check out if you
don't want to spend
you know this one here is like 300 bucks
so it's a great alternative for 85
if you're gonna smell very close to it
with different elements and different
components different turns
but essentially the same scent profile
samsung character with
you know different uh you know nuances
if you will
i would describe oola rouge as a
fragrance that's sensual it's floral and
it's musky
let's talk about performance performance
actually pretty good i got seven to
eight hours longevity it pushes quite
strong for the first two hours
then it'll stay close to immediate
surround or ascent bubble
and by the way it gives you a really
nice scent cloud especially if you spray
your garment like myself
you're going to definitely radiate the
stuff as you walk around as you pass by
as common to the rouge aroma and scent
profile
people will get whiffs and they're going
to like the way you smell preferable
seasons for me on this one
spring and fall for sure you can't pull
this off all year round i think it's
versatile enough that you could
definitely
go heavier on the sprayer when the
weather is colder go wider in the
sprayer especially in the summertime
but you can pull this off all year round
but if i had to pinpoint
the actual perfect season i would choose
two seasons spring and fall
for me for sure great for this
particular fragrance especially
springtime
age group anybody that appreciates this
type of a scent this rouge type of a
scent dna in character will absolutely
fall in love with this one
but i'd say 25 and up i don't think a
teenager would really gravitate towards
this particular fragrance
but it is floral it's sweet and it's
definitely very very appealing it's got
that really
x factor if you will occasions for me
this to me could be worn for an office
scent but i think it's more of an
evening scent
dressier occasions and perfect for
romantic settings
final thoughts here on christian
siriano's ula rouge
this is yet another take on the very
famous
baccarat rouge 540 however a very good
alternative to that scene again going
back to the price point
85 bucks for 100 mil you can't beat it
ladies out there if you want a nice lip
balm
which is actually an add-on bonus to
this particular fragrance
the fragrance itself is awesome but the
fact that you're getting a lip balm
that's quality
it's actually an even add-on bonus to
consider checking this one out guys if
you do like baccarat rouge 540
but you're looking for an alternative
definitely look this way i know this is
brand new but if anybody
watching this video had access to this
fragrance if you have a boskov or macy's
